August Luther, B. (Male) 
EXTRA EARLY. Bisexual. August Luther is 
a medium-large, bright-colored berry, round and 
full at the calyx, tapering to an obtuse point, 
with prominent seeds of rich yellow, shining like 
gold upon the bright-red surface. The meat is 
of a wine color, growing lighter as it approaches 
the center, and is very fine grained and of mild 
and delicate flavor. It is considered one of the 
sweetest of the extra-early varieties. It is a very 
productive variety, and is popular in both the 
commercial field and the family garden. The 
shipper likes it especially well because of its en- 
during qualities. It is perhaps the most popular 
early variety on the Pacific coast, where it has 
won high distinction as a yielder, one customer 
reporting the sale of $1,500.00 worth of August 
Luther berries from a single acre in one season. 
We have been breeding this variety for twelve 
years and can heartily recommend it. 
from 2000 of your plants grrown on less than one-third of an 
acre of ground. We had very beautiful berries."

Gooding's Grove, April 19, 1910. "I received the strawberry 
plants all right and in good condition. We have had plants 
from you for a number of years, and always have had good 
success with them. Last year 1 raised the liest berries grown 
in this section." Mrs. Betsey Austin. 
Hanover, Jan. IB, 1910. "I would not have any but Kellogg's

Warfield, P. (Female) 
EARLY. Pistillate. This is the twenty-fourth 
year we have offered this wonderful pistillate 
variety to our patrons, and the highest recom- 
mendation that can be paid to any variety which 
has so long stood the test of time, is the fact that 
each year we are compelled to increase the area 
devoted to its production. It has always ranked 
No. 1 among the varieties particularly adapted to 
canning, and during the season of 1910, we made 
canning tests with this variety, the results of 
which fully justified every statement made in 
that regard concerning Warfield. The fruit re- 
tains after canning its fine rich redness, and its 
delicious flavor is perhaps superior to any other 
variety. Warfield combines with beauty extra- 
ordinary productiveness. In size it is large and 
in form ideal. Its exterior is a glossy red and 
the flesh remains dark red to the center. The 
berry is very juicy and deliciously tart. Its yield 
of fruit is enormous and as a shipper it has no 
superior. Its fruiting season is exceedingly long, 
and there is remarkable uniformity in quality in 
early and late yields.
